These words are truth from loveFor the one I treasure mostA year apart makes no differenceCos what's from the heart is mostPreciousHari Raya we walked alongTown with my stack of heavy notesThey weren't heavyCos youWere there beside meIn the box we smiled as lightsFlashed and blinded our eyesThe moment we had insideFelt truly like heavenYou crack me up withYour sidesplitting jokesYour smile so true and sweetI smile tooThe nearer theMore beautiful you areAtheletic you say you're notYou're notBut I still feel the sameIt won't changeIt cannotYou're beautifulEyes that shine through photographsThough you're not really thereYou feel realReal enoughYou are perfectLike a cold sundae on a hot hot dayI wish and IPrayThat you feel the sameAbout me.Three wordsDare I say?
